Emmy Squared Pizza is popping up in Riyadh
Pizza is everyone's best friend. Whether you like a classic Margherita or one with wild toppings, pizza promises deliciousness with every slice. Riyadh already has some pretty great pizza joints, but now, the capital is about to get a serious upgrade with the arrival of Emmy Squared Pizza. But there's a catch.
Starting 24 April, Emmy Squared Pizza will be found at VIA Riyadh. Running for a limited time only, you have two weeks to devour this cheesy goodness.
Emmy Squared Pizza is unlike other pizza joints. It offers Detroit-style pizzas that come in squares with crispy, cheesy edges and thick crusts. While details of the menu at the Riyadh pop-up haven't been unveiled, you can expect to indulge in the Roni Supreme, Burrata Margherita, The Deluxe and The Classic to name a few. Their vegan options are on point too, featuring Classic Vegan and Chili Cauliflower pies.
One of their favourite and must-have dishes is the Le Big Matt burger. Pair this up with their signature waffle fries and a milkshake for an indulgent cheat day.
Emmy Squared has already made a mark in the UAE, with Abu Dhabi and Dubai outposts. In Saudi Arabia, the Jeddah Yacht Club branch has brought the same goodness to the Red Sea city. And now, with all the buzz, this Riyadh pop-up could be testing the waters for something more permanent in the capital.
So if you're in Riyadh and love good food, make your way to Via Riyadh. You've got two weeks to grab a slice of Emmy Squared goodness and trust us, you won't want to miss this one.

Iconic Tanweer Festival returns to Mleiha this November in Sharjah
11 Aug 2025 18:11 SHARJAH (ALETIHAD)The second edition of Tanweer Festival is set to launch from November 21-23 this year to light up the desert of Sharjah. Following the success of its debut edition, the one-of-a-kind festival returns to the majestic dunes of Mleiha, bringing with it a renewed call for enlightenment through music, art, and shared human experience. Set in the breathtaking natural beauty of Sharjah's Mleiha region, this celebration of global unity is designed to ignite connection, understanding, and inner discovery through an unforgettable cultural journey under the stars. At the heart of Tanweer Festival is the visionary leadership of Sheikha Bodour bint Sultan Al Qasimi, whose passion for cultural dialogue and sustainability inspired the festival's creation. Driven by a belief in the transformative power of music, nature, and shared experiences, Sheikha Bodour envisioned Tanweer as a platform that transcends borders, connects communities, and nurtures a deeper understanding of our shared humanity. Sheikha Bodour bint Sultan Al Qasimi, President and Chairperson of the Board of Trustees of American University of Sharjah (AUS) Sheikha Bodour bint Sultan Al Qasimi, President and Chairperson of the Board of Trustees of American University of Sharjah (AUS), recently commented, 'We are thrilled to bring Tanweer Festival back for its second edition, and this time, it's even more ambitious, immersive, and meaningful. Last year's debut was just the beginning of a journey that resonated deeply with so many people, and this year we are building on that foundation with a richer programme, stronger sustainability practices, and an even more powerful message of unity. I truly can't wait to welcome our growing community back to the Mleiha desert to continue this journey together.' This year, Tanweer Festival, which translates to the festival of enlightenment, embraces the theme of 'What you Seek Is Seeking You,' a famous quote from Rumi, the 13th-century poet and mystic whose work transcends cultures, religions, and generations. Through music and poetry, Rumi encouraged people to explore the depths of our inner selves, reconnect with the natural world, and find unity in diversity, values that lie at the very heart of Tanweer. What to Expect The festival grounds are carefully curated to reflect their holistic ethos. The Main Stage will be a multisensory arena with ambient lighting, ancestral music, and mountain-side projections. The Dome acts as the heart of community learning, hosting discussions and workshops, while the Tree of Life serves as a serene space for gathering and reflection. Nourish, the festival's culinary hub, offers organic, farm-to-table dishes including vegan, vegetarian, and traditional Bedouin-style BBQs. The Marketplace features handpicked artisans offering unique handcrafted items, while immersive art installations transform the desert into an open-air gallery. Leaving No Trace Sustainability remains a non-negotiable pillar of Tanweer Festival. It is a single-use plastic event with a dedicated reuse and recycle strategy, green waste composting, and zero-waste food and beverage services. Sustainability education will be woven throughout the festival, setting a new standard for eco-conscious cultural events in the region. With a 'leave no trace' approach, Tanweer ensures that its footprint is minimal, proving that large-scale gatherings can be deeply respectful of the land that hosts them. Returning with a more dynamic and expressive identity, the second edition of Tanweer is a chance for individuals to step into the desert once more, giving them the opportunity to reflect, reconnect, and realign through the universal language of music. This is more than a festival; it is a movement for those who seek deeper meaning, community, and beauty in a world too often divided.

Review: Adaline offers a lavish, Dubai-style night out for the revellers
Flaunting a very Dubai-style of nightlife, Adaline is that spot you go to for the pre-party, the party itself and for the post-party. Occupying a glamorous corner of DIFC, the whole experience starts off chic and sleek – sit-down dinner, drinks and classy jazz music punctuating your conversations, before slowly descending into a high-energy showcase that will have you on your feet and dancing the night away. The Vibe Dim, sultry and alluring – that is the best way to describe Adaline. Draped in deep red interiors, seductive textured glass chandeliers, big, round tables and plush, velvet carpeting and furniture, the whole thing is very retro-chic, emulating the jazz bars of the 1920s, with of course just as much glitz, romance and incredible music. The Food and Drinks We start with some bites and nibbles – pillowy soft focaccia, mozzarella cheese, cherry tomatoes and olives. Light, fresh and the perfect way to whet your appetite. The starters come as the panzanella – heirloom tomatoes, marinated capsicum, cucumber, bread and ricotta mousse, a creamy, dreamy, bright combination of flavours; the calamari fritti – crispy squid, paired with tartar sauce; parmigiana di melanzane – rich tomato sauce and melt-in-your-eggplant; margherita pizza – shatteringly crispy crust, perfect pools of cheese and sauce. For the mains, we sample pollo all'amalfi, a tender bite of chilly and lemon, a safe option, and the risotto, creamy and bodied with generous pecorino cheese and pepper. To finish off, we have the mille-feuille with berries, prepared tableside and a neat, sweet ending to the meal. The Service Smooth, efficient and attentive, the staff move within the crowd undetected, refilling glasses, clearing tables and replacing dishes while you're engrossed in the musical spectacle unfolding in front of you – some of the best live singers we've seen at any establishment in Dubai, offering powerhouse vocals, stage presence and so much soul. The live band is no less, playing up buttery music to set the mood. What to Order Panzanella Parmigiana di melanzane Risotto Mille-feuille What's On the Bill Dhs400 to 600 for two, including food and drinks. The Final Say What's On Verdict: Looking for a party?
